Bangkok, Thailand (PRWEB UK) 15 May 2013
Thailand's most innovative, awarded and pioneering boutique hotel
group, The AHMS Collection, today announced plans to open a unique
destination spa and retreat on Koh Krabeay, a pristine private island in
Cambodia in Q2, 2015.
AKARYN Koh Krabeay Retreat & Spa will feature cutting-edge
anti-aging treatments, advanced meditation techniques, yoga for
connoisseurs of the practice, latest thinking on harmonious living in
nature and other advanced therapies as part of its unique offerings.
This follows the election of AKARYN Hospitality Management Services
(AHMS) founder and owner Anchalika Kijkanakorn as Chairman of Small
Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH), making her the first woman and also
the first Asian to hold the prestigious position, heralding an era of
Asian expansion for The AHMS Collection.
AKARYN Koh Krabeay Retreat & Spa will offer an ultra-exclusive
spa retreat on its own island, with sustainability and environmental
preservation its watchwords. It will feature 40 exquisite and very
spacious pool villas on Koh Krabeay, one of a chain of emerald islands
accessible from the seaside town of Sihanoukville by luxury speedboat in
less than 20 minutes.
Ms Kijkanakorn said she envisaged the retreat becoming the group's
flagship property and a leading Asian destination for innovative health
and wellness escapes. The retreat's design had been painstakingly
crafted so as to allow retention of all the old growth trees on the
island while leaving other native flora and fauna unaffected - the
ultimate manifestation of the AHMS design philosophy, Outside Living-In.
Ms Kijkanajorn said AKARYN Koh Krabeay Retreat & Spa was
scheduled to open in Q2, 2015 and was taking bookings now. "The exciting
thing about this project is that it gives us an opportunity to define,
refine, innovate and create the ideal destination holistic and medical
spa that redefines how we live today and equips the guest with tools
they can use upon returning home to incorporate these measures and
wisdoms into their daily lives.
"There will be a featured meditation cave, walking meditation
practice, and a venerable guru of meditation will be invited to teach on
week-long learning," she said. "This is in addition to the organic
garden that will feature raw and healthy produce that thrives on the
island and environs.
"Guests will be given all the tools in the organic arsenal, the
finest technology will be deployed, and we will have the absolute state
of the art in terms of weight loss, weight control and reaching your
body's desired equilibrium."
All of the AHMS Collection properties are located on 'secret
beaches', Ms Kijkanakorn said, requiring guests to take roads less
travelled. "AKARYN Koh Krabeay will be the most secret beach yet, a
beautiful and intriguing retreat and a true spa destination on its own
private island."'
Founded in 2003, the award-winning hotel group has three fully owned resorts in Koh Samui (http://www.akaryn.com), Phuket (http://www.aleenta.com/phuket) and Hua Hin (http://www.aleenta.com/huahin) - as well as the hip adults only akyra Chura Samui, (http://www.theakyra.com)
which is operated by the group. All are boutique in size and located on
secret beach locations - offering more than a hotel in many cases but
also an authentic destination experience.
In 2013, the AHMS Collection recently added to its own impressive
collection of prestigious international hospitality accolades with key
awards for each of its five star resorts bestowed within less than a
month. Through its Pure Blue Foundation, each of the collection's
resorts works in marine conservation to benefit its destination in an
authentic and heartfelt way, from saving endangered marine turtles in
Phang Nga to aiding regeneration of reefs, beachfront beautification and
most importantly, educating the next generation on the fragility of
marine ecosystems and how to help preserve them.
AKARYN Samui Resort and Spa, the group's current flagship boutique
resort on a private beach at Koh Samui's Hanuman Bay picked up Best New
Luxury Hotel at the 2012 World Luxury Hotel Awards, as well as making it

Grosvenor Square on November 4, 2012.
The third and founding five star property in the Akaryn Hospitality
Management Services (AHMS) collection, Aleenta Resort and Spa Hua
Hin-Pranburi, was also amongst the gongs, named Best Luxury Coastal
